Newark residents have a unique opportunity to recapture authority for their schools and city. While debate swirls about the decision-making and motivations coming out of the governor’s office, there has been an ongoing distrust of both local and state officials.

Having a say in the working of the city has left residents weary and disillusioned.
With the election of a new mayor, residents of Newark have the opportunity to reset the relationship between the people of the city, politics and government. Hopefully for the schoolchildren and their parents this will not be a missed opportunity.
